i have asked already a few times but nothing has worked or even mildly helped for that matter. other than the obvious like votamins, tea, lozenges and vocal rest, what can get me my voice back the fastest?

My grandson has been complaining of a sore throat and is losing his voice. He has been running a low temp for the last couple of days. When he woke up yesterday he had developed a red dot on his chest. Is anyone familiar with this?

I've been coughing since last week. I cough up thick green phlegm all day long.

My lungs feel inflamed and my throat is always scratchy.

Please don't suggest I go to a doctor or clinic, because I can't afford to do either.

I'm looking for a natural way to get better.

My daughter is six an ever since she was one I thought she had asthma, she was a preemie , but that’s not why thought she had it. I have it severely and she acts the same way I do when I’m having an asthma attack. When she was one she had a big one, but my doctor wouldn’t do anything, he thought I was just being a hysterical mom. So I took matter into my own hands and gave her a coffee treatment, which I use when I don’t have my inhaler handy, it really works well and stopped her coughing with in minutes. When I told my doctor he yelled at me saying it would make her heart race. I said I’d rather her heart race then have her die because she can’t breath, again he seemed annoyed with me.


Now this doctor is highly recommended and a preemie specialist that I actually hand selected because of his 23 years of preemie expertise, but every time I mentioned asthma, he’d say it’s just a cough and tried to treat it like a cold. Thinking maybe I am just going over board I believed him until the last two months when I had to take her in three times for coughing because her medicine wasn’t doing anything.

A few weeks ago at basketball practice we were running our laps before practice. it was only 10 laps and i should have been able to do it (i ran cc before bball season) but in the middle of them my lungs like tightened up and all of my breaths came in really short and i couldnt breatrhe well.

tonight at basketball it happened again but this time i was okay during the 10 laps but like an hour later we did 1 suicide. ONLY ONE! and i couldnt breathe afterwards for like 10 minutes and then once i could breathe again i got a really really bad head ache.
ive told my mom about this both times but she thinks im just runnin too fast.

what do you think i should do?

I'm a nurse but I can't think of what these symptoms may be from and maybe someone else has had it? When I inhale and exhale, I feel this kind of "crunchy" feeling, almost like a rubbing inside my chest on the right hand side. When I'm doing things I can't feel it but when I sit still, I can feel it and it drives me nuts. Also, it seems as though if I push my right breast in when I breath, the feeling goes away... it's weird and I am seeing a dr about it next week but thought I'd ask on here to see if anyone else has had a similar experience.
Thanks in advance.

I heard that the asthma attack is different from just having asthma symtoms. I suffer from asthma and for the past 3 weeks, I have been very bad. I have woken up in the middle of the night from hearing my wheeze. I was just diagnosed with asthma this year. I have never had an Asthma Attack and don't know how it feels. I really would like to know because I don't want to die when it happens.

My husband has sleep apnea, he has not been diagnosed, but every night i have to nudge him 10 times so he starts breathing again. He is dead set that it is something in our apartment that is causing his apnea. He thinks the vents are so dirty, they are the reason. That or the air is sooo dry his throat sticks together. I have never read about environmental things causing apnea, but who knows. Please anyone, have you ever heard of something like this?
